There's also the Valeo kit, which is even cheaper on ECS, even with shipping:
Audi B5 A4 Quattro 1.8T > Drivetrain > Clutch > ES#251027 Clutch Kit With Solid Flywheel - 52285615
It's what I'm running with my FrankenTurbo setup and after 10K miles (so far) it's doing fine. Don't know if this will hold up to a well-tune Elim setup, though. And also you have to use the Valeo clutch discs, which can be a downside. But the included flywheel is 20-ish pounds.

Make sure your exhaust flex pipes aren't damaged. I got rear-ended last Christmas and didn't even file a claim as there was just a single mark on the bumper from the license plate bolt.

Well, turns out the impact was just enough to crumple both of my flex pipes, which started leaking soon thereafter.
